Extinguislsing Fires ia Mines.

The American, Analyst gives the fol.
lowing ingenious plan for extinguishing a
ire in nine: The Calumet and Hecls
copper mine in the upper peninsula ol
Michigan is the most extensive mine IN
the world. Several weeks ago the tim
bers which support the pumps and "man
engines" which are very extensive,
caught fire on the l,600-ioot level. The
entrances TO the mine were Theoretically
sealed. and it was thought that the frs
could be ,extingnished by steam, which
was poured into the level in great auan'i-
tics through four-inch iron pipe extend,
ing So feet into the mine. Prof. Alex
ander Agassiz, OF Boston, President OF the
mining company, arrived OH the scene q
few days afte- the fire broke ont. He
conceived the idea OF flooding the mine
with carbonic acid gas. Chemicals were
procured and the gas was Manufactured
in great quantities and forced into the
mine by heavy pressure from the engines
The plan wac entirely successful and
when the mine was opened few days
later not a trace of fire remained An
engine WIS then set to work pumping oni
the gas and another TO forcing in fresh
air ... .. F-... q.

High License in the West,

The election on the question of putting
Prohibition into the Constitution of Ore
gon proves to have resulted in a majority
OF about 5000 against the amendment.
Fully two-thirds of this comes from Multi
nomah county, which includes Portland,
where the heaviest vote ever cast stood al
most exactly four to one against Prohibi-
ton; and its friends, with apparent JUS
tice, attribute the result to the intelligent,
candid and vigorous opposition of the Ore
gOaian, the chief newspaper of the State.
The Oregonian expresses the belief that
fully one-half OF the affirmative votes were
those of men who had been driven to that
stand by the offensive course of the liquor
sellers of interfering in politics, and the
question of Prohibition was no sooner dis
posed of than it began an earnest advocacy
of high license. The election in Oregon
was the fourth State election of the year
on the question of Prohibition michigan,
Texas and Tennessee having preceded it),
/; and there is no doubt that the dogma has
lost strength ever since it came so near be-
ing incorporated in the Michigan Consti-
tuition last spring The trend of public
sentiment throughout the country is now
Enthusiastically toward the combination of
local option and high license. Florida is
the latest State to try the policy of allow
ing each county thus to decide for itself
whether or not liquor shall be sold, and in
this way a large portion of the common
wealth has within few weeks past estab-
| lished a sort of Prohibition which the To-
cal sentiment of the communities involved
| will sustain and enforce. Dakota is also
trying this system, and at the recent cleo
i tion more than three-fourths of the coun-
ties established Prohibition under local
option law.-Ne,g York Erening Post.

Reclaiming Land.

The Woodland Democrat says "Hon.
ID. N: Hershey has just completed sub
stantial levee around about 800 acres near
the sink of Cache creek. The land in that
locality possesses the best quality of soil in
Golo county, or in the State for that mat
ter; but the trouble is that in the winter
1t is overfowed By the waters of both Cache
creek-which spreads out into the tules-
and the overflow from the river which
overreaches its banks in every wet season.
q. w. WO0dard also has large body of
land surrounded by strong levee, lust
above the land of Mr.. Hershey. The canal
which was constructed few years ago to
drain the surplus water off Cache creek,
runs between the levees of Messrs. Her
shey and WOodard, there being a space of
probably 200 yards between the two lines.
1t is the opinion of these gentlemen that
the levees will enable the canal to carry off
all the waste water of Cache creek,
thus leaving their lands free from overflow.
If their surnises should prove correct, as
they most likely will, there are many hun
dred acres in the locality, now entirely
worthless for farming purposes, that may
be brought into valuable use'

sTANFORD,s VIEWS.
Senator StanfOrds Expresses Himself OF
Tariff and Revenue Matters

Senator StanfOrd's Expresses Himself on
Tariff and Revenue Matters.
Copyright 1887, by the California Associated Press.I
WASHINGTON, December 1st.- Senator
Stanford received many calls to-day. To
your correspondent he said he favored the
entire abolition of internal revenue taxation.
He did not wish to be misunderstood as
favoring free whisky. The States could
regulate the sale and manufacture of alco-
hollc spirits as they pleased, but he did not
thlnk internal taxation wise or consistent
with our form Of government in time of
peace. The tariff, Governor Stanford thinks.
Is intended for protection to American labor
and industry and not solely for the pur-
pose of revenue.
He is opposed to any tariff for revenue
only. He thinks the expent5s of govern
ment should be shared according to the
means of individuals, or the property they
possess. 1t is possible, he says, that John
jacob Astors coachman wears as much i'm
ported clothing as his master, but it is not
right that the coachman should be COM
pelied to pay as great a proportion of the
expenses of the Federal Government as
Mr.. Astor on that account. The Govern
ment is protectionis. for the help that
protection gives to labor and home indus
try. But he believes that citizens should
contribute to the support of the Govern
ment IN proportion to the property they
own and which the Government protects.
Senator Stanford will probably be made
Chairman OF the Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds, and will do all in
his power to secure an increased appropria-
ton Tor the purchase of site for public
building in San Francisco, and money to
begin the construction of the same.

Things Might Have Been Worse.
ST. PETERSBURG, December 1st. The
Ministry have asked the Car whether in
view of the political situation, it would be
desirable to hold an Educational Congress
IN 1888, or to postpone it to 1890. The
Gar answered that it should be held next
year. He said the political outlook was
satisfactory, and there was no fear of new
complications.

FOREIGN
A FATAL DATE
How December ed has Figared in the
History of France.

How December I'd has Figared in the
History of France.
lcoppf9ht, 1887, By tie California Assoc,dtea Ies,
New YORK, December 1st-Tbe Iode-
pendent, French newspaper published in
tins city, calls attention to the fact that
December ID is among the fatal dates of
French history, and says. The Corsican
changed the Directoire and had himself
named first Consul for ten years on the "a
of December, 1889. On December ., 1904
he burst the Republic with the sanction of
the church. On the night of D .cember ..
1851, the third Napoleon again killed the
Republic and one year after, on December
I'd, he declared himself Emperor. Eighteen
years afterward, Napoleon III. gave to
William of Prussia his sword which he
had never used, at the same time losing
Alsace and Lorraine.
This makes the third I'd of December
fatal dates in the French Republic. II
seems that this trio is not sufficient, for to
morrow the I'd of December, 1887, every.
thing seems to be in the same condition
again, for the sole purpose of Furnishing a
man for the faults of his son-in-law, a man
who, until now, has been considered the
purest of constitutional Republicans.
